Listen to poem:

The Kiss's Confession

If a lip could weave its own refrain, 
It would drape itself; longing for delight, 
A fleet strumming; a pair, in soothing rain, 
World's lightening kept alive one stolen night

It would sing of passionate pages turned
Inside the bars, it holds moments 'til heartbreak
Vermillions borders crossed, endless war is yearned
What was fired from the eyes, leave Cupid's bow to take

In phantom touch, it tastes both love and rhyme
Petals, drawing on petals, the instruments, a blur
It is a joy, thrumming tune, at the pulse of all sprung time
In silence of the moment, it becomes a song for sure.

Closing at the commissures of superior and inferior seams,
sweetness is humbled; as I am won, with anothers dreams

A sigh making, remembering poem. Brought back GOOD memories, plus recall of how disappointed I'd be if someone I had a crush on proved to be a terrible kisser. It amazes me how many people haven't a clue. I digress, I meant to tell you how lovely your lines and imagery are, how enjoyable. T/U for reading some of my 'older' poems. On SOUP poems become ignored way too soon. My latest poem is a true story, but don't tell anyone, k? I'll visit again, you'll never know when - Poetry Hugs, CayCay
